NELSON — This spring, Kootenay Permaculture is celebrating 20 years of Permaculture in the Kootenays and across Canada.
An Introduction to Permaculture workshop is offered at the Silver King Campus in Nelson March 12 and 13. (Participants also have the option to attend just the first day, Saturday, March 12.) During the workshop instructor Gregoire Lamoureux will cover the principles of Permaculture design and the different techniques that can be used on your land or on your small urban backyard.
The instructor’s knowledge and experience with local plants and with edible plants that are well adapted to the climate of the region will guide the participants in their choices of plants for their landscape.
